Romney drops to sixth in USA Today poll

Bible Belt Blogger: Romney drops to sixth in USA Today poll

Frank Lockwood

A poll of 429 Republican and Republican-leaning voters, conducted between March 23-25, shows Mitt Romney's support plunging in the past two weeks, from 8 percent to 3 percent. The former Massachusetts governor (and former Mormon missionary to France), who was in third place at the start of the month, has fallen to sixth place, even trailing Sam Brownback of Kansas.

Meanwhile, Southern Baptist minister (and former Arkansas Gov.) Mike Huckabee is stuck in tenth place, with just 1 percent of the vote. The religious views of both men have garnered a lot of media attention.

Rudy Guliani, apparently unharmed by criticism of his two divorces, leads the pack.

Comments



Maybe if Romney just gave each GOP primary voter a "contribution" he could increase his support.

Worked for the MA. conservative groups- and the one area of success for this presidential candidate appears to be fundraising....
